Optimizing Gas Analysis in Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage

As the global demand for energy grows, so too does the need to transition toward sustainable energy sources. For many process manufacturers, carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) is a central part of their efforts to reduce emissions of one of the most prevalent greenhouse gases (GHGs), carbon dioxide (CO2).

Offshore Pipeline Design for CCUS

(P&GJ) — Design and construction of CO2 pipelines are similar to natural gas transmission pipelines. However, there are differences like: thermodynamic modeling, blow down modeling, specifying the maximum water content, pipeline fracture propagation control, use of elastomer materials and performing a quantitative risk assessment, mainly related to release modeling and defining the allowable exposure limits. These factors require special attention for CO2 pipelines, when compared with natural gas.
